I really like the book "AntiPatterns in Project Management" by William J. Brown, Hays W. "Skip" McCormick III, and Scott W. Thomas.

The book is entertaining and the situations the book describes ring true. There is much programming philosophy in the book, with topics such as constructing demos, prototypes, problems with legacy code, etc.

Antipatterns are fun to read about and they address the real-world issues that harm your code and development processes.

The book is light reading, perhaps aimed mostly at managers. There are other books on antipatterns, also.

It should work perfectly the first time! - toma

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
